Audit

We provide assurance and consultancy over governance and risk – two critical areas for any bank. Put simply, we assess the nuts and bolts of every part of our business, looking at the risks and working out what we’re doing well and how we can do things better. Staying one step ahead of an ever-changing regulatory landscape, we constantly challenge ourselves to do the right thing to safeguard our customers and investors.

So I had a 2-week induction, shadowing colleagues and getting to grips with things. I then got more hands-on and was proud to play my part in two big transformation projects
